Glucaric acid is found in several fruits and vegetables, with its highest concentration being found in cruciferous vegetables, apples, oranges, and grapefruits, and it is also made in small amounts in the human body. ᴅ‑Glucarate is an important substance that assists the body in its quest to detoxify and eliminate various toxins, hormones, and carcinogens from the system. Two of the mechanisms that the body uses to detoxify are conjugation and glucuronidation, by which the body binds water-soluble substances to hormones or carcinogens, making it easier for them to be excreted. The enzyme β‑glucuronidase breaks the bonds formed during the detoxification process, which allows substances to recirculate in the body instead of being excreted. ᴅ‑Glucarate inhibits β‑glucuronidase, therefore encouraging the elimination of the potentially harmful toxins, carcinogens, or hormones.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nutritional Fundamentals for Health","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48230270337319,"sku":"1061","price":57.4,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0845\/5693\/9559\/files\/image_8d8b1f42-8e23-4ef6-bc9b-7d380e13a34d.jpg?v=1731463629"},{"product_id":"nfh-chastetree-sap-60-capsule","title":"NFH Chastetree+ SAP 60 Capsules","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eChastetree+ SAP\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is a synergistic blend of chasteberry, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eGinkgo biloba\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, and vitamin B₆ used to help regulate menstrual cycle concerns.

This makes sense given that exercise is a form of stress on the body and mind.

It has also been found to reduce levels of inflammation in the body after intense exercise, meaning that it can speed recovery times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, rhodiola is a powerful agent when it comes to mental health. In people suffering from mild to moderate mood disorders, rhodiola extract can significantly improve symptoms such as insomnia, self-esteem and emotional stability. Improvements in those who report being ‘wired and tired’ meaning that they are anxious but exhausted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt appears that rhodiola is able to positively impact mood, energy and stress coping through cortisol balancing, blood sugar regulation and neurotransmitter support. Most notably, research has shown that it can prevent the breakdown of adrenaline, serotonin, dopamine and acetylcholine, thereby increasing their action in the brain. Although there are many ingredients within the whole plant extract, rosavins and salidrosides are the key active ingredients that provide medicinal action.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCyto-Matrix’s Rhodiola Rosea Extract provides 150mg of rhodiola rosea extract per vegetable capsule, standardized to contain the evidence-based 3% rosavin and 1% salidroside content.

Cortisol, released in response to stress, is mainly produced by the adrenal cortex. Intra-abdominal adipocytes also produce cortisol. Identified as an adaptogen through extensive research, rhodiola relieves symptoms of stress (such as mental fatigue and sensation of weakness) by maintaining healthy adrenal cortisol activity. Recently, a double-blind crossover study examined the effect of rhodiola on mental performance in healthy physicians. The results suggest that rhodiola may moderate fatigue under stressful conditions and promote cognitive function, including mental focus and stamina. In a separate, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study, rhodiola provided benefits for physical and mental stress in students. Promoting the proper activity of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine plays a part in this herb’s ability to enhance cognitive functioning, memory and attention. Cortisol Calm also contains Sensoril ashwagandha, a clinically researched form of the herb. Ashwagandha is traditionally used in Ayurveda to improve memory and as a calming aid.
